If you are inconsistent with focus, don't increase motivation. Increase structure.
The protocol
- 2 min: Define one outcome in a single sentence.
- 38 min: Execute only that outcome. No context switching.
- 5 min: Debrief: done / blocked / next move.
Rules that make it work
- One block, one objective.
- No inbox or social while timer is active.
- Always write the next step before ending the block.
Consistency compounds when your process is simple enough to repeat daily.
